Kubota M7060HDC A/C Belt Tensioner

[jomch]

Replaced A/C belt tensioner bolt, lock nut and two nuts at the end of the tensioner bolt, as the parts diagram shows. When tensioning the belt, instructions were to turn the tensioner bolt counterclockwise, which I did, but the two nuts at the end of the tensioner bolt just unscrew and fell of. What am I doing wrong? Thasnk you!

The tensioner on my M9000 just keeps the belt in alignment and not much more.

The AC tensioner on our M100X, LX3310 all turn counterclockwise to tighten the belt. The tension on the LX 3310 has to be tightened about a turn and a half every 50 hrs. Too small a belt , for the loads, in my opinion. For right hand threads, point your thumb in the direction you want movement. Your finger will curl in the direction of rotation, use left hand for left hand threads.
